HJT log after reformat

I got hit with several different kind of virus's all at once. I thought I had removed them all, but panda said there were rootkits so I decided to reformat the hard drive and reinstall windows. I downloaded AVG Anti Virus and Anti Spyware along with Adaware and Spybot S+D. The ant-virus found 2 "changes":C:\\windows\system32\kernel32.dll and shell32.dll. I think these might be related to windows updates, but I'm not sure. Then the anti-spyware found something called Hijacker.Small. I don't know how this could have happened after the reformat, but I had it removed. Adaware and Spybot found nothing. At this point I don't what I should do or if I can ever fully trust this computer. I have included the current HijackThis log. Please advise and thank you for your time.

I ran the AVG Anti-rootkit and it said nothing found. I've also run the panda active scan and it did not find anything. Is there anything suspicious in the hjt log? Everything seems to be working ok. Thank you for looking into this for me.
